San Jose, CA, March 4, 2019 – CloudGenix, a recognized leader in the software-defined wide area networking (SD-WAN) market, announced today that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has named CloudGenix to its 2019 Data Center 50 list. This annual list identifies technology suppliers that offer the right management tools to help businesses and solution providers ensure data centers run with maximum performance and efficiency.

The Data Center 50 list shines a light on key technology suppliers powering, supporting, and protecting today’s complex data centers. This leads to it being a trusted resource for solution providers searching for best-in-class data center infrastructure, data center management tools, software-defined data center technology, and data center services. To select the list, CRN editors carefully consider multiple criteria; including each company’s overall impact on the market, it’s influence on the channel, and the types of technology and services it makes available to its partners.

CloudGenix AppFabric provides businesses with a simple, secure application fabric to connect remote sites, retail stores, and branch offices to the data center and the cloud. AppFabric enables top-down policy controls for applications for performance, security, and compliance, allowing businesses to more confidently adopt the cloud, integrate broadband Internet and cellular at the branch, maximize user experience with applications, and gain actionable insights into how their networks and applications are performing. Further, organizations gain new levels of agility and opportunity to reduce both capital and operational cost across the board.

“CRN’s Data Center 50 list recognizes the top technology suppliers that enable their partners by delivering innovative data center offerings with greater customization, optimization, and security,” said Bob Skelley, CEO, The Channel Company. “These companies each have specialized strengths and deliver services for solution providers that are vital to the evolution of the infrastructure marketplace.”

“AppFabric has transformed the way businesses think about their WAN and enables digital transformation in ways that legacy networks cannot, affording new levels of innovation, cost optimization, agility, and alignment of business and IT policy. We are thrilled to be recognized by CRN as part of the 2019 Data Center 50 List,” said Robert Sexton, Vice President of Global Accounts and Channel Sales at CloudGenix.
